I came to D&G to help with my divorce. Clive advised me right from the start, ensuring that all decisions and actions were carefully thought through. He was able to advise on the best approach to maintain status quo keeping the situation as amicable as possible. This was invaluable as we were able to work through things with the minimum of disruption even when faced with an aggressive lawyer on the other side. Thank's to Clive and his team what could have been a horrible processes turned out to only be difficult, but not impossible.

I came to D&G Law in December 2018 for help in regaining contact with my son, unfortunately contact with my son was completely removed by his mother and through many ups and downs I didn't see him for over 6 months due to the family courts injustices. Polly and Clive have represented me throughout various parts of the process and they have been amazing, professional, diligent, detailed, empathetic and knowledgeable of the process I was going through. Polly and Clive went above and beyond what was expected as a solicitor and I am incredibly grateful for their representation. I can thankfully say that contact is back with my son and and normality returned. I would definitely recommend D&G Family Law.

Polly Barklem has been a star while helping me with my divorce case. Polly never used a legal jargon when talking or corresponding with me which means I had a clear understanding of the process and all documents involved, and I never felt uncomfortable about the whole matter. She is extremely professional and I loved the fact that she kept me updated on the case regularly without any need of asking for updates from my side. I really recommend Polly and D&G Family Law for family related matters.

"D&G Family Law assisted us with a dispute about finances following a divorce. Polly worked very hard on our behalf. She was always quick to respond, doing everything she could to move the case forward as quickly as possible. Her eye for detail and expertise helped us settle the case for at a fraction of the cost of a pricey London law firm. We highly recommend D&G Family Law."

I came to D&G Law in December 2018 for help in regaining contact with my son, unfortunately contact with my son was completley removed by his mother and through many ups and downs I didn't see him for over 6 months due to the family courts injustices. Polly represented me throughout every part of the process and was amazing, she was professional, diligent, detailed, empathetic and knowledgeable of the process I was going through. Polly went above and beyond what was expected as a solicitor and I am incredibly grateful for her representation.

I can thankfully say that contact is back with my son and although not completely over it is certain to be finalised and normality returned. I would definitely recommend D&G and in particular Polly in representing anyone. Thank you Polly for all your hard work!

D & G helped me with child arrangements order, prohibited steps order and specific issue order. This was eventually reduced to just child arrangements order. These were extremely emotional and stressful times for me but I need not worry, as I had Polly at my side. She is extremely professional and empathetic. When words eluded me, or when I felt overwhelmed, she took the stress away and was proactive in her approach.

She was always warm, responsive and I felt like her best client - the epitome of customer service. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend D & G Family Law. They are not just a firm of solicitors; their approach is tailored to your needs. Thank you Polly for all your help!

Polly Barklem acted as my solicitor in my divorce last year and I would have no hesitation recommending her as a divorce lawyer. Polly is extremely knowledgable and professional in her approach. She responded promptly to all my concerns and questions, some of which probably seemed very emotional. Despite being a solicitor myself, I know nothing about family law and needed a lot of guidance and information to understand and get through the divorce process.

She never made me feel stupid for asking questions. Importantly to me, Polly was very compassionate and really seemed to be on my side. This helped considerably. I felt I had my team behind me and was in safe hands. Thank you, Polly!

This law firm was recommended by a person who was in the throes of getting divorced herself and she had changed legal representation twice before finding this firm and so was able to refer me to them and I can say that despite divorce never being a pleasant scenario, it's always good to have a firm of law representatives who can put your mind at ease with regard to your current rights and the legal processes. Polly my lawyer was great and has a great understanding and knowledge of what could and should happen.

I was also lucky to not be in conflict with my now ex and so the process was not too arduous as we didn't really care who got the tainted cutlery or used furnishings etc which my ex's sols kept pressing for! Lol My divorce costs were reasonable but I hope to never need to be in this situation again.

Highly recommended! The solicitors here are warm, dedicated and hardworking. Their expertise and friendly manner helps to alleviate the pressure and pain of going through the family law system. I would never have been able to get through a very difficult time without D&G supporting me every step of the way. Special recommendation for Polly, whose empathy and drive shines through.

Priya and Clive were a pleasure to deal with. They guided me through the divorce process with true professionalism and were my composure during a particularly infuriating time. I will highly recommend them, and I already have!

I was very happy with the excellent professional and friendly service provided by Priya and Clive. They were very helpful and were always able to clarify any legal questions and terminology that I was unsure about. They helped to make the divorce process a less daunting experience for which I am very grateful and I would highly recommend them to others in a similar situation.

I just wanted to say a huge thank you for your help over contact with my daughter, I feel that without your help in explaining my options and your advice on moving forward, I would have faced longer not seeing my daughter and i’m sure spending more money, I will be passing on your name and contact details to anyone that has the same issues I had.

In such a short space of time you were able to guide me and i’m glad to say I now have regular contact with my daughter, I’m sure after your professional approach with letters and contact with my ex partner that I wont be having any more issues with her. Thank you again

I went to D&G family law to see if they could help me to get my property back in my sole name after divorce from my husband. After a half hour meeting they were very helpful explaining that my divorce hadn’t been finalised as this hadn’t been sorted. This gave me great confidence as, up until then I’d just been hitting brick walls with another solicitor firm.

As soon as Polly took on the job, she got the ball rolling. My ex husband made it very difficult putting several obstacles in the way, but Polly dealt with all these with skill and efficiency keeping me informed every step of the way. The outcome was as I hoped for thanks to the hard work Polly put in. I cannot thank Polly enough as she made the whole process as smooth for me as possible. I would highly recommend contacting Polly Barklem at D&G family law if you need any legal advice.
